A group of travellers that have settled on a green space in Yeovil seem to be settling in for a while, after South Somerset District Council (SSDC) said they would only get an injunction if the problem got worse.

The group arrived on Friday (September 1) with numerous vehicles, a couple of caravans and a menagerie of pets and animals.
